It’s been a few days, … the BBC.

Lenifying beyond any decency, by lies of omission

I didn’t go LOOKING for this … in fact ; what I went looking for was yesterday’s 300-cunt mini riot in Milton Keynes. (Or minor scuffle as the BBC might have called it, if they had bothered to cover it, that is.)

What I found in the same results, was the following pair, side by side.

(1) A man has been jailed for ramming a motorcyclist off a Buckinghamshire bridge in what police described as an act of “extreme” road rage.

and

(2) Motorcyclist falls from Milton Keynes bridge after collision.

These two descriptions are of the very same incident. Reported by the Guardian in the top example, the BBC in the bottom one.

If you read the full description of the ‘incident’, from link the first, it reads more like attempted vehicular homicide.

The second one reads relatively more like a bit of a misunderstanding.

And the more thorough (factwise) telling of events precedes the one that leaves the more pertinent facts out, by a week, .. so it was undeniably purposely so. Strangely it’s the BBC one with the vid clip. But that’s no mitigation.

And NEITHER report carrying a photo of the driver, a Mr John Smith. I’m kidding… it’s a Mr. Nikesh Mistry, .. and he seemingly IS a ‘mistry’ (sic) ‘cos ain’t NO pic to be found in relation to name and crime combined.

Have a gander. It’s fucking blatant.

I was stirred to consider fame by Ron’s recent nomination of Dylan Mulvaney. Admittedly he is an extreme example but becoming famous so commonly pushes normal people out of a stable orbit. Some cope with fame admirably. JK Rowling springs to mind, you may not like her politics but to her that’s your fucking problem. However armies of the famous really do not. Consider present-day TV “personalities”, game show entrants, pop “musicians” and most glaring of all those “influencers” on the interweb. A few are sound but most are away with the fairies. Personally I treasure my anonymity. When I see lottery winners being interviewed on TV it gives me the creeps. In their position I would run for the hills before the journalists found me. I don’t gamble though, so I’ll never become a millionaire by taking a pound off each of a million people who can ill afford to lose it. First cousin to fame is of course power, something else I don’t crave. The only power I want is the ability to pay the bills and to say what I think, which latter is obviously being eroded year on year but that’s a subject for another nom.

Still, I console myself with the knowledge that many people think my way. Consider how many people when offered something in the debased honours system tell the politicos to stick the gong where the sun doesn’t shine.

Rudolph William Louis Giuliani, lawyer and politician, served as US Associate Attorney General and mayor of New York City. He used to be a Democrat – Americans aren’t slow to switch their allegiance when it suits them. He was described as a hero after 9/11 and became known as ‘America’s Mayor’. He rubbed shoulders with the elite and the influential, and basked in the reflected glory. He was famous, successful, wealthy and popular.

So where did it all go wrong? He aligned himself with Donald Trump.

He was captivated by Trump’s stature and his apparent ability to get away with anything. He served as Trump’s personal attorney, leading the ex-president’s campaign to overturn the 2020 election result, which proved totally ineffectual in the courts. He backed Trump to the hilt, enthusiastically repeating the ex-president’s outrageous lies and recklessly leaving himself open to legal repercussions.

He has been ordered to pay damages to two Georgia election workers who he falsely accused of ballot fraud, he’s been sued by voting systems companies Dominion and Smartmatic for defamation, he owes money to the IRS for unpaid taxes and various others including his own attorney for unpaid legal fees. He now has liabilities of $153 million with assets amounting to less than $10 million and has been forced to file for bankruptcy. In addition to the civil actions taken against him, he has been indicted on thirteen counts including making false statements, soliciting false testimony, conspiring to create false documents and pressuring state lawmakers to violate their oaths of office. He has had his law licence suspended in New York and Washington DC and faces disbarment.

Donald Trump hosted a fundraising dinner at his Bedminster golf club to help Giuliani with his legal bills, which appeared to be a nice friendly gesture, until it became known that he owed Giuliani $2 million for legal fees which he is refusing to pay.

If Giuliani was able to step back from his predicament and review the last four years objectively, he would have to admit he has acted like a complete cunt. He allowed himself to be roped in and suckered by Trump, his reputation is in ruins and he only has himself to blame. He caused his own downfall and deserves no sympathy.

We officially left the EU over 4 years ago. These morons have had all that time to check what the requirements are, and whether their passport fits said requirements, and now they’re playing the victim because they were too lazy to bother.

Such is life when you’re an out of touch upper middle class fuckwit who’s used to getting their own way and having everything presented on a silver platter. I have no sympathy for them whatsoever. It’s not ‘a technicality’ that airlines should give a free pass for, it’s the rules – either check and obey them or fuck off.

Not that many years ago when public lavatories started closing down to be converted into desirable residences for minimalists, or wine bars, the chattering classes were worried about “where to go” in London. Now that everybody uses bus stops for that purpose, “slashing” in London means something quite different:

South London tube stations seem to be a magnet for stabby types – no wonder there are so few tube stations in South London – but don’t worry, Central, Northern, Piccadilly, District – even the Metropolitan Line, there will be a Dwight or a Mohammed coming to your line soon – diversity is our strength, innit, bruv?
